Mac party kids see death
By VIRGINIA WHEELER
A WOMAN was knifed to death in a McDonald’s as she organised a children’s party.
Terrified youngsters watched as Jackie Marshall, 57, fell screaming in a pool of blood.
Witnesses said a man lunged at Jackie with a large knife and stabbed her repeatedly.
A 20-year-old man, who had worked in the same restaurant at Chichester, West Sussex, was charged with murder and is due to appear before magistrates today.
He was believed to have been fired earlier on Saturday for being rude to a customer.
Jackie, of Southbourne, West Sussex — who had worked at McDonald’s for 15 years — was rushed to St Richard’s Hospital in Chichester but died later.
Customers and workmates left cards and flowers outside the restaurant yesterday.
Ian Pratt, 32, who worked with Jackie at another McDonald’s, said: “She was much loved.”
Gareth Pearson, regional manager for McDonald’s, said yesterday: “We are shocked and horrified.”
The children, customers and staff were offered counselling.
